We’ve also updated our Guide to Your Rights at the End of Life. The new version not only covers what your current rights are at the end of life under the Mental Capacity Act, but also tells you what your choices are and what you can ask for following guidelines on end-of-life care from the Department of Health, the General Medical Council and the Royal Colleges of GPs and Nursing.
